Every year the 24th Parkallen Scouting Group participates in the Remembrance Day Parade at the University of Alberta Butterdome (corner of 87 Avenue and 114 Street). Please dress in full dress uniform and arrive no later that 9:30 AM.

This is a special time for our youth to march alongside with our veterans, those who currently serve in our armed forces and most of all remembering those that have gave their lives during times of war, armed conflicts and in peace so we can live in freedom today.

A Big Thank You from 24th Parkallen Scouting Group

I would like to thank everyone who made a donation of bottles to help fund our scouting program on October 18th. We would not be able to maintain our excellent youth service leadership program over 30 years without your generous support.

I would also like to thank everyone who was able to donate food for the Edmonton Foodbank. We were able to collect a few hundred pounds of food that will help those in need.

Most of all I would like to thank all our volunteers who helped make this Fall Bottle & Food Bank Drive a great success. We could not do this without our fantastic volunteers.

We will be holding our annual Spring Bottle & Food Bank Drive on April 11, 2015.
